HALOGEN Angel eye bulb code for 08 sedan...
what the heck is the bulb code?
i have coded the angel eyes to be brighter but want to buy GP thunders 7500k like my friend did in his coupe. they look great with turned up voltage but i know my angel eye bulb is not the h8 model and all i can find are LED kits that don't say what kind of halogen bulb? i looked on replacement bulb diagrams and they dont even have angel eyes listed. help would be appreciated if anyone knows the bulb code. |

So i had to read this a few times, but i understand what you are asking now. If you have a 2008 sedan with xenon headlights, then there is no halogen bulb upgrade for those lights. They use a custom designed bulb and there is no halogen replacement available. As well you cant code your lights to be brighter since that is not a feature with the 08 sedans, only the coupes.
The only option you have available would be to purchase a LED bulb replacement, such as our LUX e90 V5.2 angel eyes .

thanks for that info. i was going out of my mind trying to find the bulb code.
however I will say I definitely coded the stock angel eyes to 13.7 volts. and verified they got brighter, as well as they no longer dim when the headlights are switched on. |

they never dim when you turn on the headlights, only the Coupes do that. if you overdrive the bulb to 13.7 v you will shorten its life though.
